    Australian veterans forced to sleep on creek beds amid rising homelessness crisis

    We've all known about this problem for years and yet nothing ever gets done. No person should ever have to sleep rough and everyone deserves a roof over their heads. Please politicians stop the double talk and DO SOMETHING for once in your miserable lives.

    Losing a child changes you forever. When our daughter died we spent months and months just walking around the house like zombies. It never leaves you. What was once a happy household is no longer. Its time that the law looked after the victims and not the perpetrators. What is he going to do...

    When did you know it was the right time to propose?

    I first met my wife on a blind date but she was my mates date. Here we are 50 years later still loving each other. When we married I was a week off 21 y.o. and she was 18. They said it wouldnt last but look at us now.

    Prince Harry accuses ‘officials’ of lying to protect Prince William

    I have a son who married a Meghan. We havent spoken in 5 years now and have missed our grandson growing up. I hope that Harry wakes up to himself but I have my doubts. About time he was stripped of his Royal titles. Disgusting behaviour and as for Meghan- who walked you down the aisle you ingrate!

    All it means for me is that I can work an extra 7.90 hours per fortnight and thats it. The Govt. had the chance to improve our lot but clearly didnt.

    Good news for pension recipients! Millions of Australians could see a cash boost to help with the cost of living

    It is only fair and proper that Pensions are increased in line with the CPI but the bigger issue is allowing pensioners to work longer hours WITHOUT impacting their pensions. More tax would be paid; more employment would be taken up and labour scarcity would be a thing of the past

    Locals want this creek renamed over concerns of racism. Do you agree?

    When are we ever going to stop apologising for events that happened 200 years ago. It is history. Let it stand. I'm sure that aboriginals were also guilty of causing damage to the white population. Are we complaining?

    Sad to say but the Greens have the balance of power in this parliament and they are weilding their stick and Albanese like a lap dog is following everything they ask for. Seriously! Typical

    2022-3 Federal Budget: What does it mean for you?

    Obviously Trina G can afford a 56% increase in power prices. This from a party who 97 times said that power prices would reduce by $275 p.a. under them. Cant get them to admit how wrong they were. The bad times are coming folks. The Governments push for their so called renewables will be theirs...
